Tim Tebow won’t begin the 2020 season as a member of the New York Mets. The quarterback turned outfielder was among the team’s first roster cuts Friday. He — along with 10 other players — were assigned to the team’s minor-league camp.
Tebow, 32, didn’t do enough to impress the team in his limited time this spring. He went just 2-for-13 over 10 games. One of those hits, however, was Tebow’s first spring training home run. That wasn’t enough to buy him more time in major-league camp.

The move shouldn’t come as a surprise.
